How much can a polymorphed player carry? A table with popular polyforms would be great. (Master mind flayer, minotaur, vampire lord, jabberwock, arch-lich, tengu, silver dragon) --Tjr

Source:Hack.c#line2162. Non-strong monsters that weigh less than human are scaled based on their weight. There's no automatic benefit to being a strong or large monster, but a strong monster will get 18/** strength as well. Nymphs also have 1000 carrying capacity always. Arch liches end up with ~90% capacity, tengu seem to get around 20%, and everyone else you mentioned is strong and thus has no penalty, only the 18/** bonus. -- Qazmlpok 16:54, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
